PODCAST: Volatility Strikes in 2020

Economist/trading coach Jerry Robinson examines the FUD (fear, uncertainty, and doubt) permeating the market right now and its root causes.

• A day of reckoning is coming to the U.S.
• Markets are unnaturally high, thanks to the Fed
• Identifying your niche: Consider the sectors
• Coronavirus has spooked the markets resulting in the likelihood that its economic toll will either be overestimated or underestimated
• The Bernie Sanders phenomenon – despised by both sides of the aisle yet clearly leading the Democratic candidates
• Volatility is back at 2018 level; potentially a relief rally ahead (but will it be a fake-out?)

When the Treasury yield speaks, the Fed listens. Jerry explains why in this segment, and shares a definite advantage of being a member of our community.

Jerry closes out today’s show with a daunting quote guaranteed to captivate our thoughts – if only for a moment.
